A Rush of Blood to the Head

Some'll laugh and some just sit and cry
And I know the mistakes that I made

And I'm gonna buy this place, that's what I said

"So I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war
See it all disappear without trace
He said, "I'm gonna buy this place and see it go
Stand here until I fill all your heart's desires

And they call as they beckon you on

And stand here beside my baby watch the orange glow
They say, "Start as you mean to go on
He said, "I'm gonna buy a gun and start a war
And they call as they beckon you on
Honey, all the movements you're starting to make
Because I'm gonna buy this place and see it burn
See me crumble and fall on my face
Stand here beside me baby in the crumbling walls"

If you can tell me something worth fighting for
Honey, all the movements you're starting to make
See me crumble and fall on my face
If you can tell me something worth fighting for
He said, "I'm gonna buy this place and watch it fall
Meet me on the road, meet me where I said
Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head"

See it all disappear without trace
And do back the things it did to you in return"
They said, "Start as you mean to go on
And I know the mistakes that I made

Blame it upon a rush of blood to the head, oh to the head"
"Oh I'm gonna buy this place and start a fire
When am I gonna see that pretty face again
As you mean to go on, as you mean to go on"
Oh and I'm gonna buy this place, that's what I said
"So meet me by the bridge, meet me by the lane

Start as you mean to go on"
You just sit down there and you wonder why"
